from www.lasvegassun.com – Plans are in place for the 29th Annual AVN Awards, the adult industry’s biggest exotic and erotic event Jan. 22 at the Joint in the Hard Rock Hotel. There’s a red carpet pre-show and then the star-studded ceremony, where outstanding achievements in the world of adult entertainment are celebrated.

Triple-X-rated porn princesses Bree Olson and Sunny Leone (nominated for Crossover Star of the Year) host the night of naughty and nasty taking place for the first time at Hard Rock. Bree, a Playboy centerfold cover girl, is the “goddess” linked this year to Charlie Sheen. Comedian Dave Attell returns for a second time to headline as the adult industry’s highest honors are awarded.

Rocker Dave Navarro will be joined as host of the pre-show by Jesse Jane and Kayden Kross, plus newcomer Jessie Andrews, who is nominated for six awards, including Best Actress for “Portrait of a Call Girl,” which has 10 nods. The tall blonde bombshell also will be backstage to interview winners as they step offstage. Redheaded, green-eyed stunner Sabrina Maree, seen on the roast for Charlie, and Brett Rossi are the onstage trophy temptresses.

Additionally, Belladonna, who was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame this year, performs her daring Cirque du Bella aerial silk acrobatics routine. She says it will not be pornographic but instead aims to introduce a new, fresh concept to the genre of erotica.
